Seasonal celebrations amidst the pandemic: Shift towards domestic travel?
In the heart of Belgium, the French-speaking region of Wallonia is brimming with cinematographic and heritage treasures, and a new digital platform is making it easier than ever to explore these gems. Wallywood, a digital platform dedicated to showcasing Wallonia's audiovisual and cultural heritage, has recently unveiled its latest iteration, Wallywood 2.0.
This updated version offers an enhanced user experience, providing a more interactive and intuitive interface for users to delve deeper into Wallonia's rich history and culture. Key features of Wallywood 2.0 include a broader and more curated selection of films, documentaries, and archival footage that highlight the unique aspects of Wallonia.
One of the standout additions to Wallywood 2.0 is the introduction of a new section called "Wallywood TV." This dedicated streaming service within the app offers curated programming, including classic films, heritage documentaries, and exclusive audiovisual content that celebrates Wallonia's identity and history.
More than 300 filming locations in Wallonia have been listed by Wallimage, and users can now discover that their local area has been used as a filming location. Users can find scenes from films shot near their current location, as well as trailers and promotional videos of films shot in Wallonia. To share their journey to film locations, users can immortalize their experiences by sharing selfies and recreations of cult scenes using the hashtag #VisitWallywood.
The main goal of Wallywood is to encourage Belgians to rediscover Wallonia through films. With Wallywood 2.0, this goal is more achievable than ever, as users can now benefit from personalized recommendations based on their location and previous film consultations. What's more, no personal or Geo-location data is sent to Wallywood's servers in the process of personalized recommendations.
In addition to its new features, Wallywood 2.0 collaborates with Sonuma to feature reports on major films shot in Wallonia, straight from the archives of major television channels. These locations include sumptuous castles, picturesque villages, iconic houses, and stations.
